Child Support

In many divorces, child support issues can be especially emotionally charged. With experience in a number of family law issues, including child support modification and child support enforcement, Brandy Baxter-Thompson offers compassionate and effective legal counsel for those dealing with issues in child support law.
                       
Child Support Modification

Sometimes after a divorce settlement it is necessary to adjust child support payments. This is referred to as child support modification. If you are in need of legal counsel relating to child support modification, we can help.

If you need to reduce or increase the amount of child support you receive or pay, we can help. After a divorce has been completed and settled, it is often necessary to make child support modification to the agreement. If the child support modification is by agreement, you can easily do a simple and inexpensive agreed modification signed by the court that will formalize your agreement and avoid hard feelings later. For child support, this is known as a "Suit Affecting the Parent-Child Relationship" or (SAPCR).

Child Support Enforcement

When a parent who owes child support does not pay, child support enforcement is often necessary. A parent who continues to fail to make child support payments can be brought into court and made to face the consequences. Child support enforcement can result in penalties including jail time, probation, or bond posting for parents who continually fail to make child support payments.
